The ecosystem of coastal areas is consisted of mangrove, sea grass, coral reefs; natural resources of coal, oil and gas, and also fisheries resource. The objective of this research was to (1) Study the land use pattern of forest aquaculture area (KBK) in Delta Mahakam, and (2) Analyze the zonation compatibility of KBK in Delta Mahakam. The research method; the research was conducted in Muara Badak sub district (Muara Badak Ulu, Salo Palai and Saliki village) and Anggana sub district (Tani Baru, Muara Pantuan and Sepatin village). The data was taken using exploratory descriptive and purposive sampling method followed by data analysis and compatibility analysis. The result showed that the land use pattern of KBK in Delta Mahakam consisted of fishpond area accounted by 45,325 ha, mangrove/palm/swamp shrub area by 20,971.52 ha, open space/residential area by 18,651.54 ha and swamp forest area by 24,972.28 ha. Zonation compatibility of KBK in Delta Mahakam showed that the miss use of coastal management was 62.28% which consisted of fishpond area 44.16% and open/residential area 18.12%. Some recommendations formulated from academic point of view were as follows: research on KBK mismanagement effect in Delta Mahakam due to fishpond activities against the quality of environment, biodiversity and regional economy, and also research on economic and social losses due to zonation incompatibility of KBK in Delta Mahakam are needed to be done. It also recommended a regulation formulation on reformation of land use planning in Delta Mahakam and its regulation implementation so that KBK will conform to the current utilization purposes is needed to be addressed and legalization on regional regulation concerning on Strategic Land Use Planning of Delta Mahakam is immediately needed to be conducted %K compatibility %K zonation %K forest mangrove area %K KBK %K Delta Mahakam %U http://www.ijwr.co/index.php/ijwr/article/view/67
